It's become fairly common, to the point where I don't even register it at this stage.

I seen some weird looking guy jumping on the 16 bus the other day... He looked rather funny in his pyjamas. After worrying the whole bus, the bus driver wet himself and the guards and army were called with machine guns and they soon sorted him out after the guy saw the doctor and ran straight to him.

Cruising round citaaaay today so I was when I pulled up across from a bus stop in traffic. Three young ones there, 18-20 that way so I had a right gawk. Two were busy chatting to each other in an over animated "hey! look at me I'm 18-20 and talking about stuff in an overly animated manner so that ruggedly good looking guy in the car will think we're cool" sort of manner and the other one locked eyes with me.

Just at that moment when our eyes met, I could see she was saying to herself "Yea, I'm wearing my pyjamas in public, I feel slightly ashamed about myself now that you're staring at me with your condescending but yet beautiful deep blue eyes"

Seriously like, py f**kin jama's. They weren't dirty scangers either, they looked like upper middle class

The guy from the Boomtown Rats used to run around with pjama bottoms which looked remarkably like jewish concentration camp trousers and nobody ever remarked . (until now )

That was probably an attempt at a fashion statement. Not the grosse laziness or lack of self respect being discussed.

I live opposite it and I agree, once heard a conversation at the bus stop "Juz goin up ti NaaartSiyid ti ge me nu go'in ou pijaaamiz".

But I am from Darndale so I see it every day.:rolleyes:

I dont know about outside of Dublin, But in certain parts of Dublin its a common occurance, a lot of them will even put on fresh clean pyjamas before leaving the house, couldnt be wearing the same ones they slept in:rolleyes:.

I understand people saying how nasty it might be people wearing pyjamas night and day and not bother changing. If they wear pyjamas during the day that they never actually sleep in then I don't see what people's problem is.

Driving through Mayfield in Cork,couple of girls walking around in PJ's.
Mentioned it to friends who say it's quite common in Mayfield apparently!

If only we had the innocence of a child though. Wouldn't have been half the panic I'd say.

Its not a problem just an opinion. Expressed to many girls I know on various occasions (when asked my opinion).

Exactly, I don't expect everyone to like what I wear, but you are of course allowed to have an opinion, as long as you keep it to yourself until asked... or you are in a position, like this thread, whereby you can express your opinion in a public manner.

Well it could be an inherited ideal from China, when the west first began actively trading with China, a new fashion arose whereby certain Chinese people would wear their pj's in public as a sign of wealth.

It showed that you could afford separate clothes for sleeping and you were not using old clothes as sleepwear. It was mainly prominent in the middle classes...

I highly doubt that is the reason though.

Why not? Because it's not in fashion in your neck of the woods?

No its because it a sure sign of lazyness and guess what, 9 times out 10 the fcukers wearing them are exactly that.

How could pajamas ever be considered fashion? They just make people look really lazy and sloppy, I would find it hard to take someone seriously if they work pajamas 24 hours a day. I don't care what people wear but I think wearing pajamas in public is just completely ridiculous.

There can be no room for sentiment.

You're one of THEM now.

If we see you we blow your brains out.

I would say who gives a f*ck what you think of what someone else is wearing aesthetically its not everyones job to look pleasing to others..

but I would feel like sh*te staying in pjs

and the attitude of most of the jung ones is what really annoys me

ok what if you walked into a bank or a even your doctors and they were sitting there in the pjs, would you not find it a bit uncomfortable or akward ?

Also why is it only a fashion associated with jobless young ones from council areas ? Are they trying to prove something like "My life is so great on the dole that I don't have to get dressed in the morning"

My friend is a probation officer and one turned up for their meeting in a pair of snoopy pjs.

Even those who have daytime pyjamas they wear doing small errands, going to friends etc? How do you know an individual wearing pyjamas outside is lazy in other aspects?

You could look at a lot of styles and ask how on earth are people wearing it. If you don't care what people are wearing then why does pyjamas take you up the wrong way? Are we just socially conditioned to see pyjamas as indoor wear? If it became popular enough will your conditioning wear off too?

Pyjamas are outerwear, not underwear, for the most part. Fashion changes.

They are everywhere saw a couple girls today hair done make up on and in their pyjamas.. why? Lazy sods

How do you know. Did you give them a sniff? They put on new pyjamas after they get up in the morning.

I, for one, am looking forward to the next step in sartorial elegance, when they're so lazy that they skip the pyjamas altogether and walk around naked.

and how do you know that they did? did you take a sniff off them to make sure there was a fresh scent of lenor. maybe its just an age difference between me and you (im 37) to me it's utter lazyness and mank, nobody i know comes home from work, slips into a nice fresh pair of pj's and goes off visiting friends or running errands.

Saw someone wearing pyjamas in Tesco where I live onceand they just looked so awkward when they realised that no one does that here :P

It's so pointless anyway. Pyjamas are one of the least flattering things you could wear, why would anyone wear them in public?

Maybe a minority just never bother changing and on that yeah I don't think it's pleasant if they are in them a few days and it is very noticeable. Then again the day time fresh pyjama wearers would probably look at them unfavourably also.

It's a fashion trend in some areas of Ireland and the UK too. Usually areas people see as 'low income'. Tracksuits are the other item of clothing sneered at. Is tracksuit wearing a sign of laziness also? Or is all this people's pre-emptive thoughts that trends coming from certain areas must be bad?

I dont believe that people think, just because the people wearing the pyjammas are from low income areas that its a bad fashion. I am originally from the a low income area and my reason is purely that iits ridiclous. I mean what if people started wearing swimsuits or wedding dresses out in public? There are certain items of clothing that are just not socially acceptable for every day public appearences. This is the way society has been for centuries. Anway I dont believe these people are wearing them for fashion reasons I believe they are doing it to portray a kind of "I dont give a sh*t about life " image. I hear girls that drop the kids off to school in them are now known as "Slummy Mummies".

Er...so you do care what people wear?

I don't see it very often, but when I do, I find it offensive. It's almost an "in your face" celebration of chavdom. I am sure it could be easily eradicated by banning them on public transport, shops, shopping centres etc.

Dangerous Man

I saw a butch lesbian riding a harley the other day wearing green polka dot PJs.

Although where I live, stuff like this is normal.

One time I saw a child skateboarding down the street holding a live python.

And on the same day as the lesbo biker I saw a man in his thirties cycling down the street with a boombox strapped to the back of the bike blaring out the theme from Mario Brothers on a loop for some reason.

Good times.
